Area of Study (AoS) at TESU

[thecontrarian]

Hi everyone, I've learned a lot on this forum but one item I just picked up this week and am unfamiliar with is AOS or Area of Study. I know my AOS at TESU is going to be Accounting, and that I have to do certain courses to meet that requirement. But other than that, does this have any implications? I looked at TESU's website but it didn't seem to indicate anything restrictive.

As an example, assuming I meet all other requirements are there any specific rules around how/where AOS courses can be done ...
